Johnny Giacolone is on edge. Why you ask? Because he's transporting two dismembered bodies in his trunk.
Unfortunately for him, the forest where he plans on dumping them is no ordinary forest. Some say it's cursed. Others say its haunted. The truth is something quite different.
The truth is something no one wants to face...
A Song in the Dark is an original tale of murder, mobsters, and the supernatural from the twisted mind of A.D. Johnson.

The Black Forest
Every sketch he draws pulls him deeper into the forest. Every dream takes something from him.

Into the Well
Into the Well Mark and Joey never should have gone into the woods that night. What was supposed to be an ordinary camping trip turned into a nightmare when they stumbled upon an ancient, abandoned well hidden deep within the forest. The moment they looked inside, their world shifted. A deafening roar, a sudden pull, and then-darkness. They woke in a place that shouldn't exist. A world beneath their own, where shadows moved with a mind of their own, and the air carried whispers of something long forgotten. What lurked in the depths wasn't human, and it wasn't meant to be disturbed. With every step through the labyrinthine tunnels, Mark and Joey encountered horrors beyond comprehension-creatures born of darkness, twisted echoes of something once alive. They fought to escape, clawing their way through nightmare after nightmare, until finally, they fell-plunging through the void, only to awaken once more at the edge of the well. But something was wrong. The forest had changed. The trees stood in unfamiliar formations, the air carried a suffocating stillness, and their path home no longer existed. Worse still, when they finally escaped the woods and reached civilization, the truth shattered them: They had been gone for thirteen days. Thirteen days lost to the void, with no memory of what had happened in between. As they struggle to piece together the mystery, a horrifying realization dawns on them. The well wasn't just a passage-it was a prison. And now, something has followed them back. The shadows stretch further than before. The whispers grow louder. And something unseen is watching, waiting. Because Mark and Joey didn't just survive the well. They woke it up. And now, they are being hunted.Complete
Dead leaves don't fall

What I found was something far older and far darker than I ever imagined. The forest doesn't just hide secrets; it feeds on them. Time bends. Memories bleed into the bark and the soil. And something watches from the shadows - faceless, patient, and knowing exactly who you are. As the woods close in, whispering in voices meant only for the lost, I had to face a terrifying truth buried beneath the roots. One wrong step, and you become part of the forest itself, trapped where dead leaves don't fall. This is the story of what I saw - and what I barely survived.Complete
